I contacted Cato's Paving about filling and sealing some large gaps in our residential driveway. Although Cato's only services commercial properties, the individual I spoke with recommended products a handyman could apply to accomplish the job at a reasonable price. Greatly appreciated advice!

14 years ago I installed an asphalt driveway at my house. After all this time I've never maintained it and my driveway lost it's nice black color and developed a few minor cracks. It was time to fix the driveway before I needed more costly repairs. After checking online for highly rated companies, I got a few quotes for filling the cracks and sealing the driveway. The 3 companies I called were all pretty close in price and I decided to go with Cato's.
The team arrived on time and went straight to work. They thoroughly cleaned the area that needed filling and sealing and quickly

We hired Cato’s to resurface and restripe our commercial building parking lot. Price was very affordable, and they did a fantastic job and were very professional and polite. It did not matter whom we spoke to as the entire crew was very respectful. Six months after the job was completed, we noticed a small hump pushing up on the asphalt. We contacted Cato’s and spoke to the estimator, Juan. He was very professional and said not to worry that he would come out the same day! Wow! That does not happen very often. Juan came out as promised and assessed the problem and explained that it is probably

We were in the middle of an ADA lawsuit and was so overwhelmed with everything in the midst of the pandemic. The first contractor we hired claim to have fixed everything, but we failed the inspection. We then hired Ricardo to help us lay down the concrete on our property so it would be ADA compliant. I couldn't be happier with results and is so happy to say, we passed the inspection! He was so honest, respectful, and responsible. I would definitely hire him for future projects!

Cato's filled cracks and put down a Seal Coat on our driveway, they also striped on a basketball key.
Ricky cares very much about doing a good job and stands behind his work. If you want to work with someone of character, ask for Ricky.

Last week we had Cato's Paving repaving our whole church parking lot and I couldn't be happier. First Alfonso was knowledgeable and he was able to solve all our problems and provide professional advices. He even solved our drainage problem by creating a huge drainage system for us. It was a big job and I was surprised how Alfonso could handled it at ease. Alex's crew was phenomenal. During ground digging several problems arised due to poor underground piping and he was able to give me the best advice on how to correct them and solve the problem right away. Rapha came and inspected

We recently hire Cato's to do a complete Asphalt replacement and re-strip the curbs and parking lot at the townhome complex. Alfonso and Ricky and their team did a great job. They arrived on time and finished everything without delay. Ricky even came on Sunday to retouch the curb painting.
The whole place looks a lot better.

Thank you.
Alfonso and Ricky, Cato's Team.
Good job

If you are considering paving or doing any residential asphalt repair or seal, I recommend talking with with Cato's Paving. Their knowledge of materials depending on your project is pretty extensive. The level of communication was perfect, the crews work hard and treat the road project as if it was their own. From our initial consultation to replace existing asphalt, sealing the roads, painting the curbs, adding speed bumps and replacing the street signs with new ones... Cato's Paving were a pleasure to work with. After a couple of quotes from others,Catos' offered valuable observations

Needed compliant storm drain markings painted, and Cato's did the work on very short notice! They were onsite to estimate the same day, and had the job done 2 days later. The work looks great, and my tenants are happy. Thanks again!

After calling several paving companies and never receiving a call back, I was happily surprised by Cato's Paving. I called to have our home driveway repaired and re-sealed. In 10 minutes, I received a call back from Ricky. Twenty minutes later, he was in my driveway to give me an estimate. Not only was he informative about the process, he was enthusiastic about getting the job done. As soon as the weather improves, I will post some before and after photos and give an update on the process.

We are so grateful to have found Cato's Paving ! If you are looking for an exceptional company with integrity to work with--where customer service and satisfaction are top priorities--we would highly recommend Cato's Paving.

We had a major, messy asphalt sealant problem on our property, and called several Bay Area companies.Since we are residential, and not a business, we were turned down for service. Luckily in our search, we just happen to email Cato's--explaining our situation. And within a few hours, we received their phone call. Cato's rapid response to inquiries was

We were looking for a company to stripe the parking lot for our business, and add painted No Parking signs. I found Cato's with a local search. Ricky Flores was the Estimator that reached out to me. He was so friendly and responsive. He was able to let me know a rough cost for my job based on some basic information I had. After that, he came out and physically looked at the job to give me a more accurate quote, which did not happen to vary from his initial one, and was lower than the competitors quote I had already received. Although we ended up deciding to not stripe our lot after all, I

My dad was looking for a good company that could re-do his entire driveway and the front office parking area. We found Cato's Paving on Yelp so we decided to reach out to them and get a quote. Cato's was super fast on getting back to us and on proving us with a quote. They provided a reasonable price so we decided to go with Cato's. They were able to schedule us in right away to get the work done. It took them only a few days to complete the entire job. All I can say is that this company has great customer service, they are true professional and they do amazing work! I would highly

I found Cato's Paving through an ad on Craigslist (kind of sus I know, but hear me out). I will now only use them for my repaving/asphalt needs. I called them on a Monday and I met the estimator Ruben the very next day. He measured out the areas I wanted repaved and was very, very patient to all my questions and concerns. I was very impressed by 1. the level of professionalism, 2. communication I had with Ruben and 3. the very competitive quote I had received. The job is a go with Cato's.

I was also impressed by Ruben's knowledge of the ADA regulations for parking lots by explaining

Quality outfit....and my new 'go to' paving company. I've been a contractor [L&L Landscaping, Inc] for 39 years and I really appreciate working with quality companies that are reasonably priced, have experienced crews, do quality workmanship...and they are RELIABLE- a big deal. Subs are a big reflection on my company and its extremely important to me to have subs I can count on. The Crew at Catos- Juan, Karen and Mandy [and their guys in the field] are excellent. ...I highly recommend them.

I had the pleasure to work with this company last week. Catos Paving re did our parking lot since it was in very bad shape as we park our trucks here on a daily basis. They were fast, very fast actually! The crew was amazing, very respectful and minded about our office personnel getting into the office while they were working. Over all we had an excellent experience in terms of price and customer service. Could not have ask for more. Two thumbs up!.
